Naperville, IL Engagement Photography for Kristen and Michael

This was a great session for me. Very rarely do we get to shoot winter sessions. It is bitter cold in Chicago so couples generally opt for spring, summer or fall engagement photos. Kristin and Michael decided to fight the cold and have some fun. We headed out for a few hours to The Naperville Riverwalk in Naperville, IL. Being that it was winter most families were at the sledding hill and avoided the park. It was so nice having the entire area to ourselves not to mention the newly fallen snow from the night before was fresh and clean. By the time we ended our photographs I was in love with this couple. We spent the day freezing and laughing. I knew these two were the type I could push to really try some fum things. Just when they thought they were finished I pulled a sled out of my car and asked them to meet me by the hill. They happily agreed. Coaxing them to sled down the hill with their coats off was a bit more challenging. Once I told Kristin this was her chance to push Michael off the sled as hard as she could, she was ready for anything. It was a great day and we really did get some wonderful pictures for them to cherish for a lifetime. The memories of that day will always be awesome too!
